FACT: RFC1918 space does not break PMTU discovery. Deal with it.
If you use RFC 1918 space on the Internet, PMTU very well may not work for you. You can place fault on whatever standard you like but that doesn't change the *operational* issue.
1) There is nothing inherient in the use of RFC 1918 space that will break PMTU. 2) In the real world, many providers filter RFC 1918 space, which has a good chance of breaking PMTU. There, everyone is right.
